"Sound is more than simply a medium of artistic expression. Sound has practical and powerful applications in the real world." Mantras, or simple chants, are short phrases packed with energy and intention--specifically designed to generate powerful sound waves that promote healing, insight, creativity, and spiritual growth. Healing Mantras is the practical, how-to guide that makes the strengths and benefits of mantras available to everyone. The transformative power of sound has been passed down to the present from the sages of India, the classical scientists of ancient Greece, and the medieval monks of Europe. Mantras, sounds, and chants have inspired, comforted, and mended the lives of individuals, religious orders, and even entire cultures. Even though the science and discipline of chanting and formal prayer are practiced in every religion around the world, this is the first time that ancient Sanskrit mantras have been explained and adapted to Western needs. One of the few Western experts in Hindu and Buddhist mantras, Thomas Ashley-Farrand has practiced mantra-based spiritual disciplines for twenty-five years. In this illuminating book, he explains how and why mantras work and shows how to use them for everything from controlling habits to overcoming fear, from curing specific ailments to finding inner peace. In each of the more than fifty mantras, all translated from the original Sanskrit, Ashley-Farrand unlocks the power of every word, explains its appropriate application, and tells you how to pronounce it in easy-to-follow phonetic symbols. Inside, you'll find mantras for - Health - Worldly Success - Habit Control - Protection - Grief - Anger - Controlling Fear - Personal Attraction - Wisdom - Concentration and Mental Clarity - Healing Life Issues - and more! These mantras can be repeated aloud or in silence and can be used by people of any religion or spiritual practice, "as you wash dishes, as you drive on the freeway, as you meditate, or as you cook." Sound can help and sound can heal, and Healing Mantras now makes this sound medicine available to everyone.

From a leading neurologist, neuroscientist and practitioner of Ayurvedic medicine, comes a rigorous scientific investigation of the healing power of sound, showing readers how they can use it to improve their mental and physical wellbeing. Why does a baby’s cry instantaneously flood a mother’s body with a myriad of stress hormones? How can a song on the radio stir up powerful emotions, from joy to anger, regret to desire? Why does sound itself evoke such primal and deeply felt emotions? A vibration that travels through air, water and solids, sound is produced by all matter, and is a fundamental part of every species’ survival. But there is a hidden power within sound that has only just begun to be investigated. Sound Medicine takes readers on a journey through the structure of the mouth, ears, and brain to understand how sound is translated from acoustic vibrations into meaningful neurological impulses. Renowned neurologist and Ayurvedic expert Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary explains how different types of sound impact the human body and brain uniquely, and explores the physiological effects of sound vibration, from altering mood to healing disease. Blending ancient wisdom with modern science, Dr. Chaudhary traces the history of sound therapy and the use of specific mantras from previously unknown texts—traced back to the Siddhas, a group of enlightened yogis who created a healing tradition that served as the precursor to Ayurvedic medicine—to explain the therapeutic application of sounds for a wide range of conditions. Sound Medicine offers practical, step-by-step lessons for using music and mantras, whether you’re a beginner or searching for a more advanced practice, to improve your health in body, mind, and spirit.

Kuan Yin's Miracle Mantras: Awakening the Healing Powers of the Heart" is based on decades of scientific research and both ancient and modern spiritual texts. It includes the direct experiences of the author and several contributors. This book is a key resource for anyone desiring to masterfully ride the waves of evolutionary change that humanity is currently undergoing. To ease this shift into post-2012 consciousness, the many tools and practices given here are based on the wisdom of the ancients (who foresaw these changes), coupled with its correlation to quantum science. The mantras in this book, especially "The Great Compassion Mantra," are particularly intended for use in our time for the clearing away of any past records holding back our spiritual evolution and forward progress. Who is Kuan Yin? Her story, legends and miracles are well known throughout most of Asia. Her name means "Hearer of Sounds." According to Eastern tradition, when Kuan Yin was about to enter heaven, she stood on the threshold and heard the cries of distress from the earth. She turned back to come to the aid of all who suffer in this plane. She is a cross-cultural figure revered by many traditions worldwide and is considered to be the essence or symbol of Divine Compassion. Many view her as both the impersonal and personal manifestations of Divine Mercy. Practices for nurturing the growth of this divine quality within ourselves and delivering it to the world are given in this book. Kuan Yin delivered The Great Compassion Mantra millennia ago so that "living beings may obtain peace and joy, be healed of illness, enjoy prosperity, erase past sins and offenses, remove hardship and suffering, and increase spiritual attainment and virtue." The mantras are for people of all faiths, and the information in these pages is also a valuable aid for anyone desiring to develop greater love, compassion and unity consciousness. And, of course, this book is for anyone who could use a few miracles! Part One, "The Essence of Divine Compassion," covers Kuan Yin's lore, origins and history. Her lineage from Amitabha to Avalokitesvara to Tara is included. Also in this section are chapters on her famous embodiments and legends, her island, and her etheric retreat. Part Two, "Tools for Accelerating Consciousness" covers the powers of mercy, forgiveness and compassion, the use of crystals, and techniques for entering into the "Zero Point of the Heart," which is a convergence point of all planes of consciousness, as well as a portal to higher dimensions. It covers the quantum mechanics of oneness (Unity Consciousness) and the use of the violet light as an energetic purifier. We learn the secrets of the science of sound through sonic healing and mantra, and how the use of visualization and feeling can accelerate the manifestation of a desired result. The phrase "HeartSound," coined by the author, represents the convergence of the key techniques explained. There are chapters on how to protect oneself from lower astral entities, and a collection of miracle stories and Kuan Yin's appearances in modern times. Part Three, "Miracle Mantras and Powerful Meditations," includes many of Kuan Yin's important ancient texts, such as "The Great Compassion Dharani Sutra" and "The Heart Sutra," with explanations and commentaries and how the Heart Sutra describes the Source Field or Zero Point Field. It reveals Kuan Yin's Ten Vows, and her Thirty-Three Miracle Mantra Ritual. The original Chinese and/or Sanskrit glyphs are often included, with their translations and pronunciation guides. The book concludes with a beautiful forgiveness meditation, and a summation of the Twelve Power Tools contained herein for self-transformation and manifestation. formation and manifestation.
